Just Take Their Food!

Food is something I don’t bring hun,
‘Cause my friends always have, more than a tonne.
While they are distracted by having fun,
I take their food!

Sidra is like a bunny,
She is as sweet as honey,
But when I realise that she has a lot of money,
I take her food!

These are just some classmates,
Who nicely feed me from their plates,
And in the end after a few waits,
I take their food!
